One of the must-have wardrobe possessions is a good pair of comfy leather boots for those rainy days or even when the baridi is just too much. We love how she styled this look with leggings and a floral trench. Cute, stylish and warm.
2. For a more sophisticated formal look, say for an important meeting, throw over a warm blazer on your pant or skirt suit like Arnelisa.
3. Catherine of Fashionable Stepmum blog reminds us that a cashmere trench is a priced possession that every lady should have.
Trenches come in handy to keep you warm in the cold season and they can be styled in many ways, be it by wearing them as a dress, belting them, un-belting, throwing them over the shoulders, pairing them with different outfits and they're transitional, from day to night. Add a cold weather accessory such as a beret or scarf for more warmth.
